Since a trip to the 31st CSH in Afghanistan is eminent I thought I'd bulk up on my Muslim/Islamic knowledge. The Casey and Hovey libraries are stacked with Middle East documentaries:Iraq in Fragment - A beautiful film made by Seattle-ite, James Longley; breaks Iraq into its three factions: Sunni, Shia, and Kurds.
The Al Qaeda Files - An extensive, 7-piece documentary dating 9/11 forward; done by PBS' Frontline crew.
Obsession: Radical Islam's War Against The West - Eye opening; parallels radical Islamism and the Nazi Party of WWII.
Baghdad ER - Heartwrenching "life and times" of the 86th CSH in Baghdad's Green Zone.
